A heavy, geometric display sans built from squared-off forms and straight segments, with frequent beveled corners and cut-in notches that create a pixel-like, modular construction. Counters are small and often rectangular, and several letters use stepped terminals and internal cutouts that suggest stencil logic rather than smooth curves. Proportions are broad and compact, with tight apertures, minimal stroke modulation, and a generally uniform, monoline rhythm. The lowercase follows the same constructed language as the uppercase, favoring boxy silhouettes, short extenders, and simplified joins that keep the texture dense and emphatic.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, logotypes, title cards, and branding that benefits from a tech or arcade flavor. It can work for interface labels or on-screen graphics when set large enough for the notched details and tight apertures to remain clear.
The overall tone is assertive and mechanical, evoking arcade lettering, industrial labeling, and retro-digital interfaces. Its hard angles and notched details feel engineered and utilitarian, while the exaggerated block shapes add a playful, game-like character.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through solid black massing and a modular, engineered construction. Its beveled corners and cutout details seem aimed at creating a distinctive, retro-tech voice while remaining firmly sans and highly geometric.
The distinctive notches and rectangular counters add strong personality but also increase visual noise at smaller sizes. Spacing appears intentionally tight and the dense black mass produces high impact in headlines, especially in all-caps settings.
